Topic: Rules of the game
Discussion: Batter's Box

i'm with wayne on this.....batters put your feet inside the box before the pitcher pitches....no where do i see where your foot can be outside the box before the pitcher can throw a pitch....rule very clear...."ON OR INSIDE THE BOX COMPLETELY" my complaint is that umps will look at the pitcher like he is crazy when they ask for the batter to get in the box....they say just pitch the ball....

Discussion: Does the run count?

yep dave .... that is a good one also...caught a team doing that and as i requested the ball(i was the pitcher) as they thought they scored the winning run...went to first with the ump just smiling at me and got the out.....guess what we scored a few in the extra and won....always run every thing out.....

Discussion: Base runner tagging up on a bobbled fly ball to the outfield.

wayne....but yet the runner can still take off on the first touch with ball in foul territory.....he can only score if the ball is actually caught...if dropped he has to return to his base.....

Discussion: Best bat-ball combinations

we use the 52/300 ball for our leagues both senior and open.....in our senior league most all hit with a senior bat and have no problem...hr guys hit hr and single guys hit singles..i'm a tweener and have hit balls out along with getting my gappers......in the mens open they allow any bat but senior bats and the makes and models are all kinds...no one in particular....just use the bat you feel most comfortable with and have fun....also try not to gorilla swing at the ball......

Discussion: called out

well since all these batters are PO'd b/c of this rule....how about we let the pitcher get a strike as long as they hit the mat,regardless of the height of the pitch....seems fair to me.....damn guys..this is slow-pitch slow ball how much advantage do you need....we already play with the hottest equipment allowed....how about we only allow 6 fielders to make it easier on ya(batters)....the batter's box is there for a reason...just stay in it.....dang...

Discussion: Stepping out of the front of the box?

tell me stever.....how about we let the pitcher throw any height....so as long as it hits the mat its a strike.....wow this is a hitters game but they seem to complain all the time...oh the pitch is to hi/lo....or the pitcher is doing something they don't like.....wow........

Discussion: Pitchers Mask

nancy yes they can be hot but all helmets are that way...i wear a no flap catchers helmet(old style) turn backwards just like a catcher with my fielders mask...i also wear a skull cap that helps with the sweat......the double ear flap batters helmet i have not tried..but teammate does...he loves it....and yes it is hot also.....the vision for both myself and my teammate are great....the prol i have with the other helmets is that they do block down vision(at your feet and such)....have to really tuck the chin in to field grounders and low line drives.....but to each their own....ya just have to try some on to find the one you like......i did have the worth pitching mask/helmet and didn't like it b/c of vision prols......i also wear the mask when playing the infield......

Discussion: Pitchers Mask

i use the champro (same as the ripit) with a catchers/coaches helmet when pitching....the helmet protects my head...its what in would recommend if you like the fielders mask(ripit and such)....another would be the double flap batters helmet with a mask on it like some of the girls do in fastpich...i have seen one guy who attached the catchers throat guard to it....
